Chicago Open Archives: Collecting and Connecting is an opportunity to discover unique historical materials and engage with archivists, librarians, and museum curators. Visitors will enjoy activities such as behind-the-scenes tours, film screenings, or exhibit talks designed to showcase each site’s collections, programs, and services. See Louis Sullivan’s drawings of his exquisite architectural ornaments at The Art Institute of Chicago Ryerson & Burnham Archives, hear avant-garde and exploratory music preserved by the Creative Audio Archive, or take a walking tour of UIC’s medical campus featuring artworks created under the WPA Federal Art Project.
